30 mpg (29.9 actually ) average driving about 30% on motorway and the rest around Devon roads from our first tank of diesel from a 3.0d engine that had covered 4300 miles when we picked it up.

More than impressed with that considering the size of the thing and with a bit more running in we might get near an average of 35mpg ?

Silky smooth and I can't honestly see the need for more grunt in an X5 from it , so overall very happy with it. The only problem is I bought it as the family wagon and I think I prefer it to my A8.

Too small and I've really gone of Porsche.

Macan not that small and a sensational drive, game changer for a SUV
Given its a rebadged Q5 it's going to be small inside with a tiny boot. Plus it has a large transmission tunnel making it a 2+2 at best ;-)
Exactly. Our previous Honda CRV had more boot space that a Macan.
